Good hiring tools shouldn't only be available to businesses with HR departments. JOBJACK Lite offers a simpler way for small businesses to find, screen and hire the right people, without having to manage the recruitment process alone.

Running a small business means wearing a lot of hats. One minute you're managing customers, the next you're sorting out stock, dealing with suppliers or making sure everyone is where they need to be. And somewhere in between all of that, there's hiring.

For many small businesses, recruitment isn't someone's full-time job. It's something the owner, manager or another team member has to fit into an already busy day. That often means sorting through hundreds of CVs, trying to reach applicants over the phone, keeping track of everyone’s calendars for interviews and trying to work out who is actually right for the role.

That's why we built JOBJACK Lite: a simpler way to recruit, designed for businesses that need to do their own hiring.

More than just another place to post a job

Posting a vacancy is usually the easy part, so another job board won’t solve your recruitment. After posting a job, you need to know what happens next and who’s the best candidate to move forward without it becoming another full time job.

JOBJACK Lite works differently.

Instead of simply collecting applications, every applicant is automatically assessed using JobFIT™, JOBJACK's fit-based hiring technology. Applicants are then ranked according to their FIT for the role, helping employers identify the strongest potential candidates without having to work through every application manually. It's the same hiring engine already used across more than 5,000 Enterprise stores in South Africa.

JOBJACK Lite is designed for small businesses that need a practical way to manage recruitment themselves.

You might be a small business owner looking for your next employee, a store manager responsible for filling vacancies, or an operations manager who needs to recruit for a single or even one or two locations.

If you're tired of sorting through CVs that all start to look the same, and hiring another person feels like more work than doing the job yourself, JOBJACK Lite gives you the tools to find, screen and shortlist the right candidates.

JOBJACK Lite includes

• Job posting: Post your job opportunity from a list of ready-made job templates, or create a custom post.

• Automatic applicant screening: Every applicant is assessed using JobFIT™.

• FIT-based rankings: See your strongest potential candidates first.

• Interview management: Shortlist candidates and schedule interviews through the platform.

• Shareable job links: Share and track your vacancies.

• Additional checks: Request Credit, Risk and Matric checks when you need them.

• A single view ATS: To easily manage and review all of your recruitment activity.

• Applicant access: Your job stays live for 30 days, with full access to applicants for 60 days after the job closes.

Small businesses don't always need a complicated recruitment system; they need something that helps them get the job done while making more informed hiring decisions.

What if you already have candidates?

Sometimes, finding applicants isn't the problem. You might already have CVs in your inbox or candidates you’ve found through referrals.

But how do you know whether they're the right FIT?

That's where the JOBJACK Assessment & Checks Hub comes in. It allows you to assess candidates and run additional checks, even if they didn't apply through JOBJACK. You can send assessments by SMS or email and manage your results in one place.

A better way to do your store-level hiring

Hiring shouldn't become another full-time responsibility for someone who is already running a business. JOBJACK Lite gives small businesses access to fit-based screening, applicant management and interview tools, helping make recruitment simpler and more manageable.

Because finding someone to fill a vacancy is one thing, finding someone who is a FIT for the role is what really matters. Explore JOBJACK Lite →
